wanna : Java Glossary

wanna
Avoid this word. It will raise the hackles of the older generation since it is used primarily by children demanding adults give them special privilege. It is not just an informal variant for want. It implies whining and petulant demanding. ESL (English as a Second Language) speakers often use it not realising the connotations.
